William Shakespeare was right when he described three
categories of humans.

Some people are born great, some achieve greatness while
some have greatness thrust upon them.

Commissioner of Police, Wilson Inalegwu belongs to the
second category of mortals. He had big dreams of becoming a legal practitioner,
which drive his zeal and determination to read law at the prestigious university of Jos.

The young lawyer's passion for securing human lives and
disdain for criminality led him to join the Nigerian Police Force.

It would be a wry understatement to say that the able CP is
a workaholic, an achiever and a crime fighter.

His prompt response to tackling armed robbery incidences earned
him the name COMPOL 2,4,7 by the ace journalist, Ordinary Ahmed Isah.

When CP Inalegwu held sway as commissioner of police in FCT,
Abuja and it's
environ, the incessant armed robbery cases, theft, one chance, bag snatching
and others criminal activities were reduced to the barest minimum.

Like Napoleon the great, the gentle Wilson would engage criminals directly when
called upon to do so.

He has displayed unprecedented temerity in direct
confrontation with criminals. He declared the FCT a "no go area" for
the criminal elements.

He would personally supervise the patrol teams unannounced
to ascertain their level of commitment to the job.

Wilson
is an epitome of discipline and sacrifice. A selfless and quintessential
officer. An erudite officer and gentle man.

He is admired and respected by men and officers of the force
because of his humble mien sociability. He is very patient with details when
his junior officers present cases before him.

He strongly believes in the philosophy of "all men are
equal in the eyes of God". Thus, his reasons for being receptive to all.

Apart from the criminally minded people, his doors are
always open to those who call on him.

The Benue born gallant
officer with enviable track records of fighting crime, once confided in me that
he loses sleep whenever he hears that a household has been robbed or a vehicle
stolen by criminals.

Ordinary Ahmed Isah has consistently prayed for CP Inalegwu
to get to the peak of his career, but the humble CP would simple answer, 'but I
thank God for where I am' now'. He does not sound like a desperate person, but
always appreciate God for every opportunity in life.

I therefore, join other Nigerians to wish him a long life to
continue his good work of serving humanity.

As a friend and brother, I can only wish him the best and
peak of his career. I salute you our gallant officer .
